IperionX validates GenX continuous titanium powder process

IperionX has validated GenX, a continuous version of its patented HAMR titanium powder process. Across four campaigns totaling 41 hours, it produced over 500 kg of powder at roughly 12 kg per hour — six times the throughput of batch HAMR with 75% less power, 45% less magnesium and 60% less hydrogen per kilogram.

• GenX produced over 500 kg of titanium powder in 41 hours, about 12 kg/h
• Throughput was six times higher than batch HAMR over the same run time
• Magnesium use fell 45%, hydrogen 60% and power 75% per kilogram
• All eight spherical samples met the Grade 23 oxygen spec
